41 -39: The End of the Line

Originally, he insisted on treating all the bodies properly, but after experiencing so many twists and turns, he realized the absurdity of his notion.

Blood Monkey Dogs that could climb trees, for instance, could easily violate any tree-borne corpse, let alone the rest.

“Sigh…” Qin Jiagui chewed on a piece of bread, his mind quickly drifting to his girlfriend, Yuan Niping, who was still back at school.

He cherished his current relationship especially, due to his fear of loneliness, which was a result of his family situation.

Zhou Huakang suddenly added, “Zhuang Xiaohua, stop sighing.

If we’re lucky, we might get back, right?

Don’t lose hope so soon.

Isn’t that right, guys?

Hah…” He tried to lighten the mood with a chuckle, but his laughter quickly died in his throat.

He couldn’t keep it up because everyone looked so grim and the atmosphere was oppressively heavy.

“What’s wrong with all of us?” Zhao Shichang suddenly exclaimed, “We have two days in total, and we still have one day left.

We haven’t hit the final moment.

How can we lose heart now?”

The food left at school would only be enough for a thousand or so people for a few days at most, so Su Yu and the others’ mission had a strict limit: two days.

It would be best if they could find a way out within these two days.

If they couldn’t, they must get back, and then everyone would have to take risky gambles, leaving the school and entering the forest.

The severity of the situation could be imagined.

By the time they would have to take that step, countless people would potentially face death.

Just thinking about that spectacle made everyone shiver in fear.

A day had already passed, and the time left for the group is just today.

What if they gain nothing today…

Qin Jiagui stood up, his voice grave, “Time is pressing.

Let’s go.

It’s useless to mope around here.”

Su Yu stuffed the last piece of bread into his mouth, gulped down a drink of water, clapped his hands and stood up.

Slinging his backpack over his shoulder, he said, “That’s right, it’s time to go.”

Together with the newcomer policewoman Zhou Birong and the little girl Ding Shan, a line of thirteen people stood up.

They each carried their own backpacks, leaving the police station filled with the smell of blood and littered with bodies.

Although there were guns left on the ground, they were devoid of bullets and thus were essentially useless junk.

Only Zhou Birong still had a small amount of ammunition.

The group looked at each other.

They had been in this forest for two nights, and today was the morning of the third day.

The time they had left to explore this forest was only today.

After that, it would be the time for them to make decisions, a moment that no one wanted to see.

The little girl, Ding Shan, clung to Zhou Birong’s side and was protected in the middle of the team.

Zhou Birong held a gun in her hand, her eyes always vigilant as she constantly scanned her surroundings.

It was her first time entering the forest since coming to this world.

Qin Jiagui and Zhao Shichang still walked at the front of the group.

Su Yu, as usual, fell back to the rear of the group, the most dangerous position.

Usually, he was the only one at the back, but today was somewhat different.

Ma Ziye had also fallen to the back of the team, conveniently walking right by Su Yu’s side.

“Hey, do you always drag behind because you don’t want to steal the spotlight or because you’re afraid of danger?” Ma Ziye asked with a smile.

Of course, she knew that Su Yu was not afraid.

She guessed that he probably didn’t want to steal the spotlight, unlike Qin Jiagui, whose every gesture seemed to suggest that he saw himself as the leader of the team.

Su Yu smiled, then turned around to look at the increasingly distant police station left alone amid the forest, saying: “Don’t you think walking at the back…the forest behind looks rather intimidating?”

Ma Ziye was taken aback, then she too turned around to look.

After a moment, she commented, “Indeed, it’s nerve-wracking to walk at the back.

You have to keep looking back to check the situation, it’s an uncomfortable feeling.

That’s why I was wondering why you always lag behind.

You’re a peculiar fellow.”

Su Yu ruffed up his hair, then said, “But, someone has to be at the back, right?”

Ah,” Ma Ziye exclaimed, finally understanding.

Su Yu intentionally walked in the most dangerous position at the back of the party.

A wave of unexpected emotion hit her.

In a soft voice, she commented, “Indeed, you are strange.

Do you consider this kindness, or should I say you are kind-hearted, or perhaps foolish?”

Su Yu lightly smiled, responding, “I never thought about that.

Since someone has to be at the back anyway, it doesn’t matter if it’s me.

It has no relation to being kind or foolish.

Ma Ziye, aren’t you overthinking it?

Oh, by the way, thanks a lot for your brave performance last night. free𝑤ebnovel.com

It was impressive.”

He gave her a thumbs-up as he sincerely praised her.

But Ma Ziye suddenly remembered Su Yu touching her foot, and her face turned red.

She huffed, and turned her face the other way, saying, “Both you and the Big Smoker are up to no good, aren’t you?”

Su Yu was taken aback, and Zhang Zhongmou at the front turned around at once, complaining discontentedly, “Hey, how come you implicate me in every bad thing, huh?

I’ve been behaving perfectly and haven’t said anything wrong.”

Seeing his aggrieved expression, Ma Ziye couldn’t help but chuckle, but then she glared at him fiercely, challenging, “My words struck a nerve?

Can’t take it?

Bite me.”

Zhang Zhongmou flashed a toothy grin and chuckled, “Alright, I might just bite.”

Ma Ziye lifted her foot, sneered, “You dare?

I will kick you.” Her face was fearsome, showing no fear of Zhang Zhongmou at all.

The moment she mentioned her foot, Zhang Zhongmou showed his sinister intentions, glancing at her foot.

He then pointed to Su Yu with his thumbs, saying, “Serve me with your foot?

You dare, but I don’t.

I don’t want Young Master Yu to give me trouble, and I’m a gentleman who won’t snatch his brother’s love interest.

I wouldn’t compete with our good brother Young Master Yu.

You should concentrate on serving Young Master Yu with your foot.

He was so gentle in massaging your foot last night.”

At these words, Ma Ziye’s face turned crimson and her fierceness immediately subsided.

Su Yu also felt a bit awkward, shaking his head and saying, “You can’t find ivory in a dog’s mouth.

That was obviously treating her injury.

I’ve explained that many times last night.

What’s this nonsense about massage?

I don’t have that leisure.

If you’re trying to annoy me, fine, but don’t use that to irritate Miss Ma.”

Hey, how can you call this annoying?

Did I annoy you that much?” Ma Ziye felt unhappy upon hearing Su Yu’s comment.

Zhang Zhongmou smirked, thinking to himself, Su Yu, you sexist.

This is karma for trying to help the young lady.

Su Yu saw Ma Ziye get angry, made a sound of acknowledgement, and scratched his head, realizing his words had been too direct and would injure her.

He hastily said, “No, no, I’m not calling you annoying, I’m just saying this matter…ah no, Ma Ziye, don’t you find the face in front of you a bit annoying?”

Su Yu found an excuse and pointed to Zhang Zhongmou, who was getting a kick out of this.

You son of a bitch, you’re dragging me into this fight with Ma Ziye.

If you’re going to get instigated, don’t blame me for returning the favour and amusing myself by riling you up.
